As much at home writing editorials as being the subject of them, Cam has won awards, including the Canon Media Award for his work on the Len Brown/Bevan Chuang story. When he’s not creating the news, he tends to be in it, with protagonists using the courts, media and social media to deliver financial as well as death threats.

They say that news is something that someone, somewhere, wants kept quiet. Cam Slater doesn’t do quiet and, as a result, he is a polarising, controversial but highly effective journalist who takes no prisoners.

A popular radio DJ accidentally sent a photo of his genitals to a Kiwi Paralympian – and appears likely to get away without disciplinary action.

The Edge morning host Dom Harvey sent the photo to London Paralympic gold medallist Sophie Pascoe through the Snapchat social media tool, which shows a picture for a set length of time before disappearing, so the viewer cannot keep it.

Harvey says the picture was intended for his radio producer Sophie Hallwright and he immediately apologised to Pascoe – who was in Canada, competing at the IPC Championship swimming meet.

Pascoe tweeted about the incident before winning gold in the 100m freestyle in world record time. “Just finished eating dinner and opened Snapchat. #awkward surprise.”

I call bullshit on that story. For a start you can’t just snap chat anyone, randomly…you both have to have it and both have to have given permission for each other to “snap”. Their FAQ specifically says this.

You control who receives and views your Snaps by selecting recipients in the “Send to…” screen.

So, Dom Harvey and Sophie Pascoe have snapchatted before.

Snap Chat is the app version of Chatroulette…no good comes of it. Oh and contrary to reports about not being able to save images…wrong again.
